I Love Watching Women Fight!

"Sister Xin, stop it."

Seeing Li Xin and Lin Jialu's quarrel escalating and drawing a crowd of passersby, Ye Tian called out softly.

"Hmph!"

Li Xin gave a cold snort and shot Lin Jialu one final glare.

"Consider yourself lucky this time. I'm letting you off for my little brother's sake. Otherwise, I'd definitely beat you into a pig's head today!"

Ever since her Innate Internal Spiritual Energy had increased, Li Xin had been brimming with confidence.

In the early stages of their professions, mages usually could not match close-combat fighters in battle.

Not to mention that Li Xin was several minor levels above Lin Jialu now.

But how could Lin Jialu possibly admit defeat?

"You're lucky? What a joke!"

The girl immediately sneered. "If Dad hadn't protected you last time, I'd have frozen you into an ice sculpture long ago!"

"Besides, where did you pick up this little brother?"

As she spoke, Lin Jialu's gaze fell on Ye Tian.

With just one glance, her eyes lit up.

His handsome yet slightly youthful face, along with that intangible sacred aura around him, quietly drew her attention.

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't think you can keep staring just because my little brother is handsome!"

Seeing Lin Jialu standing there in a daze, Li Xin flashed in front of Ye Tian and blocked her view.

Lin Jialu came back to her senses and could not help curling her lips.

"You think I'm like you?"

"I really didn't expect you to have such a hobby. You actually like young boys? You're so much older than him—do you have no shame?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Anger showed on Li Xin's face, but her gaze shifted away slightly.

The two had known each other for many years and understood each other quite well.

Seeing this, Lin Jialu immediately looked contemptuous. "You actually do? Tsk, tsk, I really didn't expect that!"

"Cut the crap! I'm definitely going to teach you a good lesson today!"

Li Xin was clearly starting to crack and no longer held back.

She drew her twin swords and charged at Lin Jialu.

"Who's afraid of whom? I'll freeze you into an ice pop today!"

Neither of them could stand being provoked with words; they ignited at the slightest spark.

Holy Spiritual Energy and Magic Elements began to surge.

The two warriors who had accompanied Lin Jialu wore helpless expressions, clearly knowing that they could no longer stop them.

"Sister Xin, calm down!"

Ye Tian spoke again.

Li Xin stiffened, looking especially aggrieved. "Little brother, she said all that about me. Are you still going to stop me?"

Hearing the faint grievance in her voice, Ye Tian shook his head helplessly.

"I'm not trying to stop you. It's just that this is a busy district. If you're going to fight, shouldn't you find somewhere without people?"

"That makes sense!"

Li Xin's eyes immediately brightened.

"Lin Jialu, do you dare come to the Haoyue Branch Hall with me?"

"Why wouldn't I dare? I'll show you how formidable I am today!"

"Hehe, just don't cry when you lose!"

The two bickered all the way toward the Haoyue Branch Hall.

"Ah!"

Lin Jialu's two warrior attendants exchanged looks and could only hurry after them.

The group soon returned to the third floor of the Haoyue Branch Hall.

Nalan Shu, having heard the commotion, arrived belatedly as well.

"Why are these two girls at each other's throats again?"

Nalan Shu looked helpless.

Clearly, this was not the first time something like this had happened.

"Hall Master Nalan, please stop the two young ladies at once!"

Nalan Shu gave a dry laugh and shook his head. "Let them fight. Otherwise, they'll nag me to death. Don't worry, with me here, nothing will happen to the two girls."

With things said to this point, the battle was clearly unavoidable.

Li Xin held both swords in her hands, their blades radiating a faint golden sacred aura.

On the other side, Lin Jialu gripped her blackwood-and-blue-crystal staff in her right hand, Magic Elements rippling around her body.

"Today, I'll make you, you useless knight, admit defeat wholeheartedly!"

Li Xin snorted coldly, unwilling to be outdone. "I'll slice you into little white radishes!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xin launched a fierce charge.

Lin Jialu reacted quickly and raised her hand to fire an Ice Ball.

"Such a petty trick!"

Li Xin smiled disdainfully and thrust forward with the sword in her left hand.

As sacred light blossomed, her entire body turned into a flash of crimson-gold light, piercing straight through the Ice Ball.

"Cross Slash!"

Her twin swords swept out, overlapping sword lights howling through the air.

A confident smile rested on Lin Jialu's face as she continuously chanted. A layer of blue light quietly appeared around her.

Second Order magic, Frost Shield.

"Boom—"

The cross-shaped sword light struck the Frost Shield, instantly creating a mass of cracks.

"How could this be?!"

Lin Jialu's face was full of disbelief, but her spellcasting did not stop.

At that moment, a ring of white ice burst outward, its powerful force crashing head-on toward Li Xin.

"Ascension Array!"

Li Xin drove the sword in her right hand into the ground.

As Holy Spiritual Energy poured into it, a golden curtain of light abruptly rose.

The two forces collided, and the shockwave sent both girls flying backward.

Taking advantage of the moment, Lin Jialu widened the distance, launching Ice Ball after Ice Ball at Li Xin.

"These two girls still know their limits!"

Watching the back-and-forth battle, Nalan Shu spoke with relief.

Their relationship appeared poor, and they argued endlessly whenever they met, but in truth, they still knew where to draw the line.

Even while fighting, they were both holding back.

If they truly had a bad relationship, Lin Jialu would not be using the First Order spell Ice Ball. She would have used the Second Order spells Ice Blade or Ice Cone instead!

Those two spells were far more powerful.

Ye Tian remained silent, standing quietly to the side and watching the show.

Sure enough, girls fighting was far more pleasing to the eye.

Lin Jialu's spellcasting was exceptionally smooth. Calling her Haoyue City's number-one magical genius girl would not be an exaggeration.

If the two had been equally strong, the fight would have been difficult to decide.

But now...

"The playing ends here!"

Li Xin shattered every Ice Ball, then swung her right-hand sword.

Golden light lit up along the blade once more before transforming into a foot-wide blade of light that tore through the air.

The Third-Rank Knight skill, Light Slash Sword.

It drew upon the power of Sacred Light to protect the body and condensed it into a light blade to attack the enemy.

A true skill that combined offense and defense.

But generally speaking, since it consumed fifty points of spiritual energy, Light Slash Sword was a skill only knights of Level Five and above could possess and master.

"What?!"

Seeing this, Nalan Shu's eyes widened outside the battlefield.

He had not expected Li Xin to have quietly learned this skill.

Before he could think further, his entire body turned into a black shadow and vanished from where he stood.

The golden light blade collided with the Frost Shield in an instant. With a sharp crack, the Frost Shield shattered at once, yet the light blade was not completely neutralized.

Lin Jialu was so frightened that she shut her eyes.

At the critical moment.

Nalan Shu flashed in front of Lin Jialu.

Yet before he could block it, another light blade, launched later, arrived first and smashed fiercely into the first light blade.

"Bang!"

After a crisp sound, the light blades turned into golden motes that scattered down.

"Hehe, I won!"

Li Xin smiled smugly and did not attack again.

Lin Jialu reopened her eyes. Seeing Li Xin's triumphant manner, her expression immediately became extremely ugly.

"Xin'er, you little girl, how could you use such a dangerous skill in a spar?"

After letting out a breath of relief, Nalan Shu gently reprimanded her.

Li Xin stuck out her tongue. "Uncle Nalan, if I dared to use it, I was confident I wouldn't hurt her. See? Nothing happened, right?"

Seeing that the girl still dared to talk back, Nalan Shu glared at her with a stern expression.

Li Xin hurriedly wiped the smile from her face.

"Xin'er, when did you learn Light Slash Sword? And your spiritual energy..."

Even after using two Light Slash Swords in succession, she still had strength to spare. This greatly exceeded Nalan Shu's expectations.

Faced with the question, Li Xin revealed a confident smile.

"I'm already a Sixth-Rank Knight!"
